It seemed like they each took a step back, yet suddenly they lashed out violently.
It looked as if swords were drawn and bows were tense, but the moment to cease hostilities had nearly arrived.
This sudden attack did not grant the three of them what they desired. Neither the Holy Infant King's Substitute Divine Power, the Rashamon Woman's Taiyi General-cutting Spell, nor Ashuren's Asura Eight Steps revealed the true depths of their abilities.
Moreover, from this brief exchange, none of the three were confident in their ability to defeat either of the other two. In that case, it was better to stop and continue to act as harmonious comrades.
That is, unless a troublemaker appeared...
Sword light flashed brilliantly and rapidly toward the monk sitting cross-legged on the city wall, its piercing might shooting straight toward his face.
"Om Amitabha Buddha."
